It's not surprising that the local fruit invited comment. Alma-Ata, after all, meant "Father of the Apple" in the native tongue. These apples that "lay in a motley carpet under the trees on straw mats" were the original apples, these groves the original groves, this Asian valley their Eden. It was here in a Soviet land that the apple, that most American fruit, had first sunk its roots countless thousands of years earlier. Hard cider was the fate of most apples grown in America," writes Michael Pollan in The Botany of Desire. "[A]pples were something people drank." It wasn't until the age of Prohibition, when Carry Nation wielded her teetotaling hatchet, that prudent marketing led the apple industry to boast of the healthful and therapeutic benefits of the unadulterated pomme.

We, the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), issue a final rule to revise the current critical habitat for the leatherback sea turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) by designating additional areas within the Pacific Ocean. This designation includes approximately 16,910 square miles (43,798 square km) stretching along the California coast from Point Arena to Point Arguello east of the 3,000 meter depth contour; and 25,004 square miles (64,760 square km) stretching from Cape Flattery, Washington to Cape Blanco, Oregon east of the 2,000 meter depth contour. The designated areas comprise approximately 41,914 square miles (108,558 square km) of marine habitat and include waters from the ocean surface down to a maximum depth of 262 feet (80 m).

- Re "Red Delicious rich in antioxidants," June 6: The medical benefits embedded in the skin of the Red Delicious apples become useless for some people like me because of the waxy spray to make them shiny and attractive to consumers. It irritates the mucous membrane of the mouth. - Re "Pentagon details Quran handling," June 4: Even though the Pentagon confirms the Quran may have been mishandled, it still doesn't compare to how some people in the United States misinterpret and misuse quotes out of the Bible to fit their agenda.
If you enjoy eating apples and pears and as a Washingtonian, youre obligated to then you can rest assured about the future of those crops in the state. Even if you dont enjoy eating them then you must not be a native you can rest assured about the economic benefits those crops provide to Washington.
